There
have been 6 world powers throughout history; namely, Egypt, Assyria,
Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome. We read about these “kings” in Revelation 17:9-11, “And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads
are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. And there are seven kings:
five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he
cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not,
even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.”

Revelation 17:10 says 5 kings are fallen because
Rome was still in power during New Testament times when Revelation was
written in A.D. 96. Revelation 17:9-11 makes perfect sense in view of Daniel's
vision in
2:36-49 (see chart to left). Daniel's interpretation (as revealed by God in Heaven) clearly
evidences that we are today living in the End Times.

Nebuchadnezzar was the head of gold (Babylon).
Medo-Persia was the breast of silver. Greece was the thighs of brass. The
Roman empire was the legs of Iron. Rome fell to ruin in 486 A.D.; today
there are no world-powers, only super-powers. The 7th kingdom is the New
World Order!!! The Bible says in Revelation 17:11 that the 8th king (that
is, the Antichrist) is of the 7th.

Please note that the 7th king will NOT BE the
revived Roman Empire as many Bible scholars teach. The
Bible never says that. The 7th king will be World Government, aka, the
New World Order,
from which the Antichrist will arise,
very likely
a Jew.
